The Budget and Corporate Procurement Division manages the purchases of goods and services to meet our internal needs and procurement for Bank-Executed Operational Work (BEO). Our Corporate Procurement Policy and Guidelines are led by six principles: Transparency, Equality, Value for Money, Integrity, Economy, and Efficiency.
Goods and services procured by the Bank to meet its internal needs include consulting, technical and facilities support services such as food services, facilities management, security, and janitorial services; construction and related design and engineering services; computer software and hardware; office furnishings and supplies; and the purchase and/or lease of real property.
Procurement for Bank-Executed Operational Work (BEO) includes the generation of products that support the Bank’s development agenda to address the needs of the borrowing member countries.
Potential suppliers can register online through the Supplier Registration Form and should note that the IDB is not an agency of the US Federal Government and is not subject to procurement laws enacted by federal, state or local governments in the United States.
For more detailed information on doing business with the IDB, please review the IDB Vendor Guide.
Bank-Executed Operational Work (BEO) leads to the contracting of consulting services of firms (from Bank member countries) directly by the Bank, for the generation of products that support the Bank’s development agenda. The bidding opportunities generated by BEO are exclusively for intellectual products and advisory services; they could include little scope for the purchase of goods.
Procurement Opportunities in Bank-executed Operations (BEO) can be found at BEO Procurement Opportunities. Firms interested in participating in a BEO procurement selection process must submit their expressions of interest using the BEO-Bidder Portal.
